Opinions please...

Training, as per usual.

I don't think so. I've seen domestic training deployments. I participated in some. But they are usually limited to specific US military training sites and not usually done on this kind of a scale. Trust me, this is unusual.
 
Why do you all suppose it is that our ever more authoritarian government has decided to begin large scale military drill in the cities and suburbs of the US of A? Just saving money? Or somethin more sinister affot?

Would you like me to separate the part Hedgezippers even presents as facts in the article from the loony speculation and semantic chicanery for you?

The dividing line is approximately where the the video appears of the Guard marching past an ELEMENTARY SCHOOL! and SINGLE FAMILY HOMES!

It picks up a little steam at the paragraph starting with "of course, the bigger concern" (doesn't say for whom) and really gets rolling after the first use of "in other words"....the most obvious straw man alert on my list.

Eh....what should we expect from Weaselhedgers?

The information I found says this type training began in 1985...

Regardless...they sure do spend a whale of a lot of other people's money. ;)

Really? U.S Military was training with federalized local police to patrol Main Street America under NORTHCOM/Homeland Security command and financing back in 1985?

Was the Pentagon giving local police tanks, missiles and other surplus military armaments in 1985 as well?

Was the U.S Dept of Defense labeling Christians, Constitutionalist, and our country's founding founders extremists in 1985 too?

I've got two opinions if that's okay. One bad, one good.

1) It's gonna take a helluva lot more than a few thousand trained soldiers to control things if someone is thinking about declaring martial law. Moreover many of those would go to the other side if it happened. Sort of like the 150 Generals and high ranking officers of the Union Army that figuratively flipped a middle finger at Honest Abe.

2) The map of the southwest in your link suggests someone might finally be getting serious about illegal immigration. If that's the case, contrary to opinion 1, those soldiers are gonna get a helluva a lot of help from the locals.

The I Marine Expeditionary Force G-7 will be conducting a Realistic Military Training this week, using the Prescott Municipal Airfield as a helicopter refueling point in order to facilitate a Long Range Raid at Camp Navajo, Arizona.

This Certification Exercise (CERTEX) is directed to be conducted from April 8-21, 2015 at various training locations throughout California and Arizona. The training at Prescott will take place on April 15, 16.

The purpose of the exercise is to "...provide the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) the opportunity to conduct training in unfamiliar environments during the final phase of their pre-deployment program. During CERTEX, the 15th MEU will be required to conduct a series of challenging and realistic training events to test their ability to conduct conventional and specialized missions.

Yavapai Downs Fiargrounds will also be utilized to conduct a Tactical Recovery of Aircraft and Personnel. A Marine actor will play the role of a downed pilot. MEU personnel will insert by helicopter, set security, search for and locate a downed pilot and extract by helicopter.

Before arriving, military personnel will conduct a thorough site survey and operational risk and safety assessment of all civilian training sites to identify safety issues and concerns, as well as establish mitigating factors required to ensure that all safety measures are taken. Coordination has been conduceted with all property owners and local law enforcement.

According to the information received, "The USMC has conducted similar training exercises throughout the United States and it's territories safely and without incident since 1985.

Senators John McCain and Flake have been notified, as has Representative Paul Gosar, Governor Doug Ducey, Mayor Marlin Kuykendall, Sheriff Scott Mascher and Chief Jerald Monahan...

...The 15th MEU will deploy aboard three San Diego-based ships of the Essex Amphibious Ready Group. The Marines' mission will be to conduct training with allies throughout the region although they are prepared to deploy to Iraq if ordered by President Obama.

Since 1985, Marines have done pre-deployment training in various urban locales, including Los Angeles, Atlanta, Memphis, New York, San Francisco, and Phoenix...

In Los Angeles, Marines will be training on how to assault a building to either rescue innocents and/or eliminate enemies. The Los Angeles Police Department, building owners and various state and federal officials have been notified.
 
I think the government knows that Terrorists have been slipping into the country and we have several enemy camps across the border. I believe this summer will see attacks in our cities by small suicide groups. This will trammatise the US and because of fire power used and training, local police forces will not be able to deal with it, so military units will be called in to deal with it.
We will have running gun battles on our streets. If the terrorists have done their homework, they will down the grid, any easy thing to do and if they have chemical or nuclear material for dirty bombs, we could well see some pretty big numbers of deaths.

The other possibility is marshal law, but there is not a big enough army to make it work long term. Americans will not tolerate this and there are a lot of guns and smart people. The troops would not be fighting some uneducated 3rd world country, it would look way different.

I'm not going to waste my time composing long winded essays for folks who won't bother to read them. If information has already been offered in other forms and can be shared efficiently, that, in my opinion, is weightier than something I pen.

I c&p information...which doesn't need any additional input or thoughts from me when it serves the purpose. In this case, the training undertaken may be of a larger scope or under a different umbrella, but the articles I read indicate such training has been with us since 1985.

Dispute the information...
 
It's spring and every spring the reserve units of our military resume extended training. A neighbor's daughter who is in the air force reserve is away for a month just like she was last year. This has been going on for many years and isnt something that started with obama.
